ONLY IN JAMAICA: Father and two sons graduate together; father and two sons killed together — AMAAAZING!

On Monday, November 13, this newspaper reported that a 55-year-old father and his two sons were shot dead in Ebony Park, Clarendon, on Sunday night.

As rare as that occasion was, the Sunday edition of the newspaper reported an even more unlikely occurrence — the graduation of a 53-year-old father and his two sons together from The University of the West Indies (UWI) two weekends ago.
For those who might have missed it, police reports said gunmen went to a shop in a section of the Ebony Park community, called Board Villa, where they robbed patrons of money and other possessions.
The heartless gunmen then left the shop and proceeded to a house in the same yard, where they held at gunpoint, robbed and then fatally shot Clifton Scott and his sons, 37-year-old Clifton Scott Jr and 20-year-old Orville Scott.
In the other event, a singularly spectacular achievement, Harven Burke, a regional field officer at the Jamaica Observer, received his Master of Business Administration; his son Kemoi, 28, was right behind him in getting his MBA, while a younger son, Kamol, 23, graduated barely an hour before, with Bachelor of Science in Operational Management. more
